Скачать или смотреть LOTUS EXIGE V6 CUP drive and walkaround Part 1

A guided tour of the very rare Cup version of the already superb new Exige S. It's 66kgs lighter than standard and has no sound deadening. The old 'race car for the road' cliche is actually true for once. This car complies with FIA race regs and could be raced straight out of the box. But extra road noise aside, it's still quite civilised, ride is firm but not harsh. The car's responses are clean and crisp but never twitchy or aggressive. Negatives? A few minor issues but it seems a bit picky in the extreme, like looking for faults in Megan Fox. I'm sure there are some but seriously - reality check! - it's Megan Fox! Get over yourself! Maybe Kate Beckinsale is more like it - compact, British, kicks ass and looks amazing in plastic.

I digress. The car is amazing. I think the Government should stop dicking about in Afganistan and give the money to Lotus so we can all have one.

Much more to come, including a quick blast in an 800bhp Ford GT! I shit you not!
